Howdy,

i3 is one of the best experiences I ever had using Linux.

So I try to find a browser that will fit into i3 naturally. Yesterday I found (see link:Surf. But it lacks any documentation besides the manpage.

Heck, I yet do not know how to proper exit it!

So I wonder, what are you using? Tabbed browsers? Something I missed? I hope so!

I’m using Chrome. It’s insanely fast. I like fast. I was using Firefox before (with Vimperator), but Firefox lost me because it was a lot slower than Chrome (especially its GUI under load).

Yes, good recommendation. Really fast. I wonder why it wastes space in Linux (tabs are not on the same level as these _oX buttons, but it works nice.

I've tried quite a few browsers and now I'm using luakit. It is webkit-based, really fast and lightweight, very extensible, usable out of box and it has clean design.

If you don't need firefox extensions (vimperator/pentadactyl, conkeror) I recommend you to give it a try.

And there are some others I've tried.

conkeror - firefox-based, emacs bindings (i'm more into vim)
dwb - a lot of funcionality by default but not so stable
vimprobable - i guess it's not usable yet
jumanji - can't remember but i heard people like it
uzbl - more like toolkit than browser
xombrero - promising, focused on security but less stuff implemented by now
